You're substituting... Why do you think people gain weight after they stop smoking?

munch a gum.....food is a total different addiction nothing to do with cigarettes but equally harmful

because when you smoke food tastes bad so when you stop smoking it starts to tast egood and you want more of it

you have a habit of having a cig. in your mouth so now that you dont have a cig. you use food.

Freud would probably say you have an oral fixation...you have switched from one habit that concerns your mouth to another. Its natural...but thats why most people chew chewing gum when they quit smoking!
